  • Mary Poppins Jr. Full Synopsis from Mtishows.Com
    Mary Poppins Jr. Full Synopsis From mtishows.com Bert, a man of many trades, introduces the audience to the unhappy Banks family: father George, mother Winifred, and children Jane and Michael (Prologue). The family; the housekeeper, Mrs. Brill; and the houseboy, Robertson Ay, are shocked when Katie Nanna quits and storms out in frustration. George muses about what he expects from the household - the nanny, in particular ("Cherry Tree Lane - Part 1"). Though Jane and Michael insist upon their own requirements for their caregiver ("The Perfect Nanny"), George dismisses their requests ("Cherry Tree Lane - Part 2"). As if summoned, Mary Poppins appears, offering her services as a nanny. She fits the children's requirements exactly ("Practically Perfect / Practically Perfect - Playoff" ). She then takes the children to the park, where they meet Bert, who describes how wonderful everyday life can be when spending time with Mary ("Jolly Holiday"). At first, the children are not convinced, but when Mary Poppins brings to life a park statue named Neleus, Jane and Michael are in awe of her. The children return home and gush to their father about the nanny, but George is preoccupied ("Winds Do Change"). A few weeks later, the household is preparing for Winifred's party, and Jane and Michael make a mess of the house. Despite Mary's magic ("A Spoonful of Sugar"), the party is ruined when no one attends ("Spoonful - Playoff"). Later, Mary takes the children on a visit to George's workplace, the bank ("Precision and Order - Part 1"). While Clerks are bustling about and clients are trying to convince George to grant them loans, the children burst into the bank ("Precision and Order - Part 2").

    Movies & Languages 2014-2015 Saving Mr. Banks About the movie (subtitled version) DIRECTOR John Lee Hancock YEAR / COUNTRY 2013 / USA GENRE Comedy ACTORS T. Hanks, E. Thompson, C. Farrell, P. Giamatti PLOT Walt Disney, a doting father, promised his daughters that he would bring their favourite fictional nanny, Mary Poppins, to life in the cinema. Little did he know what he was getting into because the author of the book, Pamela Travers, did not like Hollywood and had no intention of letting her most famous creation be manipulated for the marketplace. Years later, when her book sales began to slow, dwindling finances forced her to schedule a meeting with Disney to discuss future movie rights to her beloved story. For two weeks in 1961, a determined Disney did all he possibly could to convince Travers that his film version of Mary Poppins would be wondrous and respectful. In the end, to really convince her, he had to reach back to his early childhood. LANGUAGE Standard American, Australian and British English. GRAMMAR As and Like 1. Similarity We can use like or as to say things that are similar. a. Like is a preposition. We use like before a noun or pronoun. You look like your sister He ran like the wind She's dressed like me We also use like to give examples. He's good at some subjects, like mathematics In mountainous countries, like Switzerland b. As is a conjunction. We use as before a clause, and before an expression beginning with a preposition. Nobody knows her as I do We often drink tea with the meal, as they do in China On Friday, as on Tuesday, the meeting will be at 8.30 2.

  • Mary Poppins JR Character Descriptions.P
    Disney and Cameron Mackintosh’s Mary Poppins JR CHARACTER BREAKDOWN MALES Bert, the narrator of the story, is a good friend to Mary Poppins. An everyman, Bert is a chimney sweep and a sidewalk artist, among many other occupations. With a twinkle in his eye and skip in his step, Bert watches over the children and the goings-on around Cherry Tree Lane. He is a song-and-dance man with oodles of charm who is wise beyond his years. We are looking for a very strong singer, dancer and actor for this role. Songs: Prologue Practically Perfect (Playoff) Jolly Holiday Winds Do Change Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious Twists and Turns Playing the Game/Chim Chim Cher-ee Let’s Go Fly a Kite Step in Time Step in Time (Playoff) A Spoonful of Sugar (Reprise) George Banks, husband to Winifred and father to Jane and Michael, is a banker to the very fiber of his being. Demanding “precision and order” in his household, he is a pipe-and-slippers man who doesn’t have much to do with his children, and believes that Miss Andrew, his cruel, strict, childhood nanny, gave him the perfect upbringing. George’s emotional armor, however off-putting, conceals a sensitive soul. A baritone (lower singer), George may also speak-sing and should be a very strong actor. Songs: Cherry Tree Lane (Part 1) Cherry Tree Lane (Part 2) Precision and Order (speaking) A Man Has Dreams Cherry Tree Lane (Reprise) Give Us the Word Anything Can Happen (Part 2) Anything Can Happen (Finale) Michael Banks is the cheeky son of Mr.

The cast has been in rehearsals for almost three months now, and is thrilled to bring the show to stage, and to share it with you. Mary Poppins, despite the popularity of the 1964 movie, is only a relatively recent arrival to stage, having made its stage debut in London in 2004, then opening on Broadway in 2006, where it ran for 2,619 performances over seven years. Featuring the classic music and characters of the movie, it nonetheless reinvented and deepened the story of the Banks family, adding interesting new characters and heartfelt new music. And since no one could imagine Mary Poppins without a little “magic,” it also seems includes some special treats for the audience.

  • Saving Mrs. Banks
    Ben-Gurion University of the Negev The Faculty of Humanities and Social Sciences Department of Gender Studies Saving Mrs. Banks Thesis Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Master of Arts Degree (M.A) Almog Naveh Under the Supervision of Prof. Catherine Rottenberg October 2019 I Abstract "Well done! Sister Suffragette!" sings Mrs. Banks in Disney's 1964 major motion picture Mary Poppins. It is not a song that one can easily forget, since it is not often that you can hear such a rallying cry for feminism, an endearing and catchy cry at that, in one of Walt Disney's most beloved films. The charismatic and musically inclined suffragette in this scene is Mrs. Banks, the wife of Mr. Banks, and the mother of the Banks children whom Mary Poppins arrives to look after, in what becomes a tale of magical and surprising events. Both Mary Poppins and Mrs. Banks are beloved and memorable characters in the Mary Poppins film, but both appear significantly changed from their initial introduction to audiences in the books written by P.L. Travers in 1934. Due to Disney's immense popularity, and the amount of book-to-film adaptations that the Disney studio has produced in the 20th century, it is therefore not surprising that Disney and its movie adaptations process, are at the center of an impassioned academic discussion. This discussion relates to the norms and values promoted within Disney's most famous films and the manner these values are presented to children and adults, but more specifically, young girls and women.
